When Should You Replace Your Brakes?
Most technicians and auto manufacturers agree that brake pads should be replaced around every 30,000 to 40,000 miles on the road. You should also consider replacing your brake pads if you notice unusual squeaking or screeching sounds coming from your vehicle while braking.
What Types of Brake Pads Are Available?
Lightweight organic brake pads are offered for smaller, more compact vehicles.
Semi-metallic brake pads are used for most vehicles on the road, sold as long-term products for larger vehicles and small commuters alike due to their long-lasting composition and durability.
Ceramic brake pads are a more recent innovation, arriving as a replacement for asbestos-based brake pads from the early days of automotive manufacturing. Ceramic brake pads are designed to perform in higher temperatures and are available for most types of vehicles near Midland and Bay City, MI.
